11 Feb - 1957 - 4 Aug Med Cruise Book
A great part of naval history. (Most Sailors consider the cruise book one of their
most valued treasures)
You would be purchasing an exact copy of the USS Everglades AD 24 cruise book during the 1950's. Each page has been placed on a CD for years of enjoyable computer viewing. The CD comes in a plastic sleeve with
a custom label. Every page has been enhanced and is readable. Rare cruise books like this sell for a hundred
dollars or more when buying the actual hard copy if you can find one for sale.
This would make a great gift for yourself
or someone you know who may have served aboard her. Usually only ONE person in the family has the original book. The CD
makes it possible for other family members to have a copy also. You will not be disappointed we guarantee it.
